This weekend the Fraglia Della Vela on the Riva del Garda, Italy is hosting two events: the Yngling Revival from 5-7 May; and the Riva Cup from 5-8 May.

It is a busy time for the Fraglia's organizers with today seeing the start both regattas at 1300 hours local time. There are over 100 entries with nearly thirty helmsmen registered for the Yngling Revival and more that eighty for the Riva Cup in the 505, Dyas, Int. 14' and Korsar classes.

The Revival has been organized thanks to the will and supervision of Andreas KNITTEL of the Austria Yngling Club. Six races are scheduled, with racing concluding on Saturday.

Eight races are planned for the Riva Cup with a separate regatta for the Int.14' and 505 on Sunday.

With these two events the spring on the Garda continues after the Santarelli Trophy - Joker Regatta held in April.
